Composed by Tatgenhorst. Concert Band. Heritage of the March Series. Audio recording available separately (items CL.WFR101 & CL.WFR197). Extra full score. Composed 1992. Duration 7 minutes, 6 seconds. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-2487-01. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-2487-01).

An exceptional band piece that utilizes music John wrote especially for the PBS production of Within These Walls, which showcases the history of our Presidential residence during its 200th year. Originally scored and recorded by the U.S. Marine Band with strings, John later arranged the music for band only and it will be performed by the Marine Band on tour. This published arrangement is slightly simplified and shortened from that version. Sections of the piece represent various important time periods in the history of The White House. The very nature of this time capsule approach makes this number a wonderful tool for teaching musical style concepts. Challenging!

Hosay a composé une marche de concert qui illustre l’histoire de la plus grande alliance ayant jamais existé entre des pays collaborant au sein d’une même organisation. Cet hommage rendu l’Alliance des Pays Libres permet de célébrer lors d’un concert une part importante de l’histoire mondiale.
